Hello there,
My new blog is up !
www.alibutt.com/sab
Its not really a blog per se , its more of a central point where i can put all those "really hard to find tips" on one site !.
As i discover more new tips that would be useful for system admins I will upload them.
Please have a look and let me know what you think 
If you want me to add a tip, or even a reg file / script - i can host it for you.
If you can make some suggestions (ie how to make the calender look nicer , let me know)
Thank you
Ali

Cool:)
Maybe you should do some informative on why xp slows your internet connection with as much as 30% (compared to linux based OS's) and how to make it work as it should. I would really like to know:P

QOS - Quality of service , its a addin that installs with your LAN card and can cause speed issues, try disabling it (rightclick my network places - properties - lan properties) and see if that help.
Do you have any browser addins ? - yahoo toolbar ?
google toolbar ?

Ummm. Think that gave me a general idea and that's what I was in for.
Making the PCs here at work go faster, however, requires mountain boots and a Tae Kwon-Do kick:)

This was on TweakXP.com:
| Quote: | Modify bandwith reserved for QoS-aware programs
Traffic flow can be managed very well in Windows XP using the Quality of Service (QoS) Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP). However, programs must be designed to take advantage of this QoS API. The traffic from programs that are not QoS-aware are sent directly to a different API called TCI. These programs have to fight for bandwidth because unlike the QoS API, there is no bandwidth reservation. If you use a lot of QoS-aware programs and would like to change the percent of the bandwidth that is reserved for the program, read below.
1. Make sure your logged on as Administrator. Do not log on with any account that just has administrator privileges.
To log in as Administrator:
- Click on start->logoff->logoff
- At the logon screen hold Ctrl+Alt+Del.
- In the user field type 'Administrator'
- In the password field type the password for the administrator (if you don't have one leave blank) and press OK
2. Click on the Start button and select run.
3. Type gpedit.msc in the text box and click OK
4. Once the program loads, expand the Computer configuration branch.
5. Expand the Administrative templates branch.
6. Expand the Network branch.
7. Highlight the QoS Packet Scheduler in left window.
8. In right window double click the limit reservable bandwidth setting
9. On setting tab check the enabled option.
10. Where it says Bandwidth limit %, change it to read what ever percent you want to reserve for QoS-aware applications.
11. Click OK and exit the group policy editor.
12. Go to your Network connections (start->my computer->my network connection-> view network connections).
13. Right click on your connection, choose properties then under the General or the Networking tab (where it lists your protocols) make sure QoS packet scheduler is enabled.
14. Now just reboot your computer and you are all done.
When a QoS-aware program is in use it will reserve the allocated amount of bandwidth and that will take away form other non QoS-aware programs. However, once the QoS-aware application is closed or closes the network connection, the bandwidth reservation is released. This is done by a series of PATH and RESV refresh messages sent back and fourth over the connection. Once these messages are no longer detected, the data flow is closed and the reservation of bandwidth is eliminate |
